Type 2 Neutrosophic Number Based Multi Attributive Border Approximation Area Comparison Mabac Approach For Offshore Wind Farm Site Selection In Usa

This approach combines the advantages of neutrosophic numbers sets, which can utilize uncertain and incomplete information, with a multi-attributive border approximation area comparison that provides formulation flexibility and easy calculation. Further, this study develops and integrates a techno-economic model for OWFs in the decision-making. A case study is performed to evaluate and rank five proposed OWF sites off the coast of New Jersey. To validate the proposed model, a comparison against three alternative T2NN fuzzy based models is performed. It is demonstrated that the implemented model yields the same ranking order as the alternative approaches. Sensitivity analysis reveals that changing criteria weightings does not affect the ranking order.

Advances in Oxygenated Fuels for Sustainable Development: Feedstocks and Precursors for Catalysts Synthesis provides a roadmap to the sustainable implementation of oxygenated fuels in internal combustion engines through sustainable production, smart distribution and effective utilization. Focusing on the sustainability of feedstocks, the book assesses availability, emissions impact and reduction potential, and biodiversity and land utilization impact. Existing technologies and supply chains are reviewed, and recommendations are provided on how to sustainably implement or update these technologies, including for rural communities. Furthermore, effective supply and distribution network designs are provided alongside methods for monitoring and assessing their sustainability, accounting for social, economic, environmental and ecological factors. This book guides readers through every aspect of the production and commercialization of sustainable oxygenated fuels for internal combustion engines and their implementation across the global transport industry. Provides multilevel perspectives on how to facilitate the sustainable production of oxygenated fuel and develop new indices for measuring the effectiveness and sustainability of implementation Recommends a framework and criteria for assessing the suitability, sustainability, and environmental benefits of oxygenated biofuels Describes the fuel properties of all oxygenated fuels and their performance in unmodified and enhanced CI and SI engines

Interval neutrosophic Set is a useful tool to describe the indeterminate, inconsistent, and incomplete information. This paper presents the application of the new TOPSIS-MABAC model with interval neutrosophic number in multi-attribute decision-making problem. In this model, the combined weight of attributes is obtained based on TOPSIS method while the best alternatives by MABAC method. Firstly, some definitions of INS are given in this paper. Secondly, the objective attribute weights are determined by TOPSIS method, and then a combined attribute weight is proposed. Finally an extended MABAC method is developed to rank the alternatives in multi-attribute decision-making problem and an illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of this new method.

The aim of this paper is to define a new distance measure and apply it in three decision-making methods.

This book presents a collection of recent research on topics related to Pythagorean fuzzy set, dealing with dynamic and complex decision-making problems. It discusses a wide range of theoretical and practical information to the latest research on Pythagorean fuzzy sets, allowing readers to gain an extensive understanding of both fundamentals and applications. It aims at solving various decision-making problems such as medical diagnosis, pattern recognition, construction problems, technology selection, and more, under the Pythagorean fuzzy environment, making it of much value to students, researchers, and professionals associated with the field.

In this paper one generalizes the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), paraconsistent set, and intuitionistic set to the neutrosophic set (NS). Many examples are presented. Distinctions between NS and IFS are underlined.

The climate changes that are becoming visible today are a challenge for the global research community. In this context, renewable energy sources, fuel cell systems, and other energy generating sources must be optimally combined and connected to the grid system using advanced energy transaction methods. As this reprint presents the latest solutions in the implementation of fuel cell and renewable energy in mobile and stationary applications, such as hybrid and microgrid power systems based on the Energy Internet, Blockchain technology, and smart contracts, we hope that they will be of interest to readers working in the related fields mentioned above.
